Quotes
- “The real reason that physicians are rotten investors is that it never occurs to them that finance is a science, just like medicine.”
- “The brokerage and mutual fund business form a financial colossus that bestrides modern financial, and increasingly, social and political life.”
- “We tend to think of the stock and bond markets as relatively recent historical phenomena, but, in fact, there have been credit markets since human civilization first took root in the Fertile Crescent.”
- “At a very early stage in history we are encountering "survivorship bias" - the fact that only the best results tend to show up in the history books.”
- “The rub here is that buying when prices are low is always a very scary proposition. The low prices that produce high future returns are not possible without catastrophe and risk.”
- “When the barbarians are at the gates, interest rates rise and bond prices fall precipitously.”
